"Enforceability of Employee Manual"
By Ralph S. Curtis


Employee policy manuals are often used by employers to communicate important rules of the workplace to employees.  They can deal with subjects such as hours of operation, uniform requirements, employee benefits, and discipline and termination issues.

     Why a Company Should Have an Employee Handbook -- Learning the Pros and ?Cons


In general, employers are not required by law to issue an employee manual or handbook.  The decision is largely a practical matter and not a legal one.  In large part, this is due to the relative difficulty employees face in attempting to maintain lawsuits predicated on an employee manual (even a poorly drafted manual).  Accordingly, an employer generally benefits from having an employee manual because the legal risks associated with adopting a manual are far less substantial than they otherwise would be if the at-will      presumption was not as difficult for employees to overcome.

Employment Contracts
By
Sherrie Bennett


If you're presented with a written employment contract, make sure to review it carefully with a lawyer's help.

In some situations, handshake agreements may actually work to the benefit of an employee.  Many of the terms that would be part of the contract are documented in paychecks and company employment manuals.  These manuals typically outline things such as vacations, paid holidays and sick leave.  And there are laws designed to make sure employees are paid for overtime and protected from discrimination on the job.
